This is such ****. I've had it. I feel so bad for him. I'm sick of seeing him get robbed. I can't take that anymore. I just told the girl Sid is hurt I don't want to hear your ********...on any issue...just STFU.

Relax. Holy crap. I can't believe someone can get this worked up over something. It sucks but at the end of the day its just a game.

No its not a game. My various sports teams give me more happiness and enjoyment than the vast majority of other things in my life. Its not a game...its a big deal. I am crushed by this.

When the jaw is wired shut people tend to lose 10-20% body mass. This could be an issue unless they have a good plan.

I'm concerned that this cup run is in jeopardy, however there is hope that he can return playing with a cage I suppose.

If he has his jaw wires shut they will tube feed him until the wires come out.

pens_srq wrote:The other issue with jaw being wired shut is you can't work out. Basically you can't breath through your mouth so air is very limited. That's not good at all if he is indeed going to have to do that.

Can't workout and you can eat normal food. People lose a lot of weight with a broken jaw usually

I still see him winning the Hart regardless of the Art Ross race. Who's to say Kunitz doesn't win it now? Hell Sid could come back with 3 games left and still win it. 10 points is going to happen for Stamkos but it may take him 10 games or more - hopefully.

He's lucky, tying Sid for the Rocket with an EN goal and now this. I guess he can be like Ovechkin and enjoy his personal awards from his couch come playoff time.

didn't paul coffey break his jaw like 20 years ago and miss like a week? don't always expect that every injury is the worst case scenario. sid will be back when he's healthy enough to come back. this team is good enough to get by without him for a little bit.
